Has anyone bought a compressor recently?

I need something compact just to run a my shot blaster periodically, and maybe a spray gun for spot priming areas that have been blasted.

Shot blaster needs 3.5CFM which i think means the minimum compressor spec should be 3.5x1.2 so 4.2CFM. Most i've seen are 9.6CFM, 2.5hp with various sized tanks

what about the aldi one for £70? currently looking for one myself, just missed a couple of cheap ones in a local auction.

I saw the aldi one, it's the same unit as sold by SGS engineering for £10 more, the benefit with the SGS one is you can upgrade to a bigger tank - I was thinking of going for a 50ltr one as i think the 24ltr tank might be too small for what i need.
